Medical Billing Services for Small Practices

For medical businesses, financial management is the key.
We at Bikham feel the efficiency of a practice is only as good as its revenue management system.
Many physicians all across the United States still manage their billing with the help of an in-house team, worse yet, they do it themselves. While in-house billing is simply not feasible for big practices, small practices have been able to get away with it.
The recent years however, has seen a rise in outsourcing Medical billing for small practices as well.

The Problem?

Physicians are experts at delivering clinical services, not bookkeeping.
A Physician on average spends 2 hours a day on administrative tasks, this includes time spent on medical billing and for small practices or a Physician who just started a practice, this can mean all the difference between being successful or being financially burdened.

The Reason?

A recent survey puts the number of active physicians in the United States at just under a million. Only 21% of which are employed by hospitals.
With the rest in contention, physicians are trying hard to squeeze the last bit of revenue that can come their way. Pending reimbursements, frequent denials, all add up over time and break the progress of any thriving business.
Small leaks can sink big ships, physicians understand that now.
As such, more and more are looking for good billing partners.

The Solution?

Medical Billing Outsourcing, we have to agree, not an entirely new concept, however, highly effective.
Outsourcing has been a proven way to increase the bottom line for years, a recent trend being the rise of Medical billing for small practices.
Medical billing outsourcing isn’t just for big practices anymore, it does not matter if you serve a 100 patients or 1000, every patient counts and every claim adds to the growth of your practice.
Small medical businesses understand this, more so than ever.
What was once an option has become an absolute necessity.
